Verse 1:
Riff 1                                
And I thought you were the moon in the sky
Riff 1                                
But it turned out you were just a streetlight
Riff 1                           
You were burning like a hole in the night
Riff 1                                
You were burning like a city of electric light
                                       
You were burning like a city of electric light  [repeat 3x]

Verse 2: (use verse 1 chords and riffs)
And I thought you were the moon in the skies
But it turned out you were just a pair of eyes
You were lurking like a creature in the night
You were looking like a city of electric light [repeat 4x]

Bridge:
Riff 2                Riff 2
Hanging by your feet, hanging in your sleep
Riff 2               
Hanging in a dream
            
Ooooh, oh-oh-ooooh-oh [repeat 2x]
Riff 2                Riff 2
We connect the stars, every single one
Riff 2
Hanging like the sun
[           
Ooooh, oh-oh-ooooh-oh [repeat 4x]

Verse 3:
And I thought you were the moon in the sky
but it turned out you were just a streetlight
You were burning like a hole in the night
You were burning like a city of electric light [repeat 4x]
